UTG+1 is something like 20/10 and SB is 10/4. I also have notes that UTG+1 is a total dumbass and regularly calls down with almost any two for multiple streets.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $1.00 BB (8 handed) Poker Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

CO ($88.30)
Button ($166.60)
SB ($111.90)
Hero ($100)
UTG ($124.80)
UTG+1 ($114.05)
MP1 ($51.60)
MP2 ($99)

Preflop: Hero is BB with A, A.
1 fold, UTG+1 raises to $4, 4 folds, SB raises to $12, Hero calls $11, UTG+1 calls $8.

Flop: ($36) 2, 2, 4 (3 players)
SB bets $24, Hero calls $24, UTG+1 calls $24.

Turn: ($108) 9 (3 players)
SB bets $39, Hero raises to $64, UTG+1 calls $64, SB calls $25.

River: ($300) 6 (3 players)
SB bets $11.9 (All-In), UTG+1 calls $11.90.

Final Pot: $323.80

Original plan was to get it in on the flop, but the flop texture gave me a chance to drag UTG+1 along for the ride. Thoughts?

I think you played it fine. I'd play KK the same way as well.

Why not? Description of UTG+1 is he's a dumbass, why would we get rid of a spewtard? sbs range is probably KK here.

Because the SB's raise is way too small and it gives great odds for 45s to suck out on us. I would prefer to reraise SB and get it allin vs him asap.
RR preflop to 40.

FWIW, UTG+1 had exactly that, 54s.

ya dean i think it's definitely worth letting utg+1 hit something on the flop and coming along for the ride. ya it's a bit more risky but if he is as spewy as he sounds then it's worth it.

I still like a raise to isolate even though Fnord owned me.

Pre-flop: UTG is the table sucker and SB is a nit OOP with a big hand, we want to take a flop here and not inspire them to make a good laydown.

Flop: You've got everyone CRUSHED here. Ideal spot for a smooth call. If the sucker continues he'll be pretty much pot-stuck.

Turn: Stick it in because you got everyone pot-stuck at this point. SB might even have to call the rest with AK at this point.

A pretty ideal spot to slow play a little. A tight player has a way second best hand he'll put a lot of action in with and the sucker will inflate the pot for you.
